Brought a couple of friends, here for a quiet lunch. One had the fettuccine Alfredo, another had a similar pasta dish, and I had the pizza. All were excellent and tasted great. Service was fast, very friendly, and the decor was authentic and comforting.

We had an excellent birthday dinner here. Our server Irnzen was amazing - perfect recommendations . The food is amazing, the service was friendly, fast and very knowledgeable, and the ambiance feels warm. Everything was delicious. I can't remember the names of the dishes, but ask your server for recommendations and you can't go wrong.

We have had such an amazing time here. The place is very Italian, from our host to our server and the kitchen staff as well. Menu is variegated and there are plenty of options for vegetarians as well. Pizza was very nice too. We went there with a huge appetite and got home stuffed! Very suggested! Unfortunately we completely forgot to take pics of the entrees!

Best Italian food I've had in Orlando area so far! My husband and I had Mushroom Risotto and Linguine Alla Vongole and both were amazing! Service was nice as well, especially Marla.

We went to the PGA Tour Superstore and passed this restaurant. It looked packed but we thought we would check. It was about a 30 minute wait. I am not sure how the hostess remembered the order everyone came in without writing it down. But she did, and did it well!
The atmosphere inside was nice. Very fun and lighthearted. A little loud but it is Friday at 730 pm. We ate outside and it was fantastic. Very laid back.
The service was great. Quick and knowledgeable about the menu. Nice and friendly.
Great food. Tasty and great presentation.
Overall well worth a visit. About $25 a person. Would definitely recommend this restaurant over the brands like OG, Carraba’s, etc.

Visited several times and the food and service is always amazing. The portions and food quality are very good. Incomparable to any chain restaurants. Authentic Italian and nice atmosphere. I highly recommend. My favorites are the chicken Alfredo and and vongole pasta. It's everything you'd want it to be and more. The food is genuinely good.

Marco was amazing!! Thank you for your hospitality. The food was amazing as expected 😋 Call ahead and RSVP, we got extremely lucky someone didn't show up. The best Italian restaurant I've been to. If I'm ever in Orlando again I'll be back.
Marco thanks for making my girls feel special, we all appreciate it very much.

We are not from Orlando, we are here on vacation looking for somewhere to eat that was not Disney Springs or City Walk. We found this place online and thought we'd try it. I am so glad we did! The food is delicious. We loved everything we had. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is coming to Orlando for vacation. It was actually one of the best Italian restaurants we've been to in a while.

We discovered Fresco last week, we had a large group of 10. We all had an amazing meal, Marco was fantastic! The food was fantastic. I can’t wait to go back! Not a single complaint from anyone. We will go here anytime we visit Orlando in the future.

The food is spectacular in this extremely busy restaurant. We made a reservation—you’ll be waiting for ages if you don’t—and even with one, we had to wait for at least 20 minutes to be seated. This was quickly forgiven as the food arrived at the table at lightning speed and in huge proportions (not to mention the wonderful fluffy complimentary bread).
The Fresco pizza with the soft bread and crisp bottom had the right amount of cheese and gorgeously juicy strips of prosciutto. The mussels were extremely tender with a great soup base and huge chunks of garlic. The bolognese with peas was flavorful. The risotto was extra cheesy (a bit too much oil personally) with a great al dente feel to it; the chicken chunks and mushroom were incredibly tender. The veal was tender and the spaghetti angel hair came with flavorful tomatoes.
My only criticism is the risotto was slightly too salty while the angel hair spaghetti didn’t have enough salt. The four of us were so stuffed we even had to refuse dessert. We will definitely come again!

Wonderful dinner experience at Fresco. Everything we ordered was very delicious and had different flavor. Appetizers of sausage and octopus were very good. Wait staff was attentive and Luisa was great. Wines were exceptional. Had like 6 bottles amongst us. Their wine list is, not long, but high on quality. Ask for bottles that may not be in the list!

Frescos is hands down one of the best Italian restaurants I’ve had and I’m a Jersey girl so that’s saying a lot. The purse bag pasta with the Gorgonzola and pear was the best thing ever, literally amazing. I could eat it everyday and not get sick of it. The service was awesome too. We came on a Friday night and we’re a big table of 6 and the food came out very quickly and the service was effficient! Can’t wait to come again
Valeria Rubio
Amazing!!! Everything was perfect from the beginning. We went for our 11month anniversary, we went with the recommendations of our server (I unfortunately do not remember his name but he was AMAZING I hopefully will have him again next time I go and will give him a shout out !) amazing customer service and the food we got was mouth watering, it is so hard to find an authentic Italian place here in Orlando and this is the real deal! New favorite place

My husband had ziti. He said it was delicious. It's in the sauce. I had eggplant. Was so good.not mushy like some places . The music was the "oldies" I enjoyed hearing them.Then our sweet
Waitress Marla...so pleasant and attentive.
Danielle Martin
Jessica who was serving as manager for the night was very attentive and friendly . The food was the best Italian we have ever had and we are from New Jersey. Chicken parm was out of this world. All the staff were so welcoming and we felt like family there. Highly recommend ! Plus reasonable pricing!

Heard phenomenal things about this place so gave it a try.
Seated right away but it was only 5:45 pm and not full. Ordered the clams and spicy sausage in wine as an appetizer and it was good - not exceptional, but good. Waited almost a 1/2 hour for it though so maybe it was good because we were hungry. Ordered our meal about the same time as the appetizer and 55 minutes later it came. Wife ordered a second Sangria midway through and after 15 minutes, we had to remind the waiter to get it. I had to ask to have my water filled.
So even though the waiter was a good guy, service lacked.
Manager had to address an issue and did so behind a half wall while raising his voice. Created an uncomfortable atmosphere for many. Someone show him where the back room is.
Waiter made the special veal chop, Parmesan style, sound great so had to have it. With veal parm being $22, I figured it would be close to that price so I didn't ask. Turned out to be $45. However, it was huge and very good. Another assumption was pasta was included. Said to give me angel hair - they charged $2 for it and it was a very small portion. Now that pissed me off a little. Didn't blink at the $45, but the $2 pissed me off. Make sense?
Summation - food was good to very good. Wife's sangria was exceptional. Service was lacking and I'm not demanding. Don't like to be nickel and dimed (angel hair). Manager needs to know the how to's.
Food and drinks were good enough to go back and I will - make sense?
Courtney Armstrong
The food is pretty good but we have been twice and the service has been horrible both times. The first time our drinks came after our meal came. The second time it was like the waiter didn't even care that we were there. We had to ask other servers to get him for us three different times. We sat with empty plates in front of us for 20 minutes before he finally brought over the check, after we asked another server to go get him to bring it to us. Then the check sat on our table for 10 minutes with our card in it (meanwhile I could see our server standing around doing nothing) before we decided just to leave cash so we could get out of there. Our server finally when he saw us getting up to leave. Food is not worth dealing with the terrible service.
Hillary Steele
Amazing! We had to wait for a bit to be seated but it was worth every minute. The chicken parm was one of the best we have ever had and the Fiocchetti Pear was to die for! Fantastic service too. We will absolutely be back.

I went for a late lunch. I walked in the door and looked at the menu , while I was looking at the menu, a server came and greeted me. I was in my work attire as I own a construction business.
She asked me if I wanted to sit at the bar I decline and ask for a table. At this point she informed me in a low voice you know this place is expensive right.
I could not believe what I heard.
I asked her what she said and she replied I'm going to get you a table. I said No what else did you say? She replied with I was just kidding.
As she was getting my table ready I mumbled, that was rude, and the bartender asked me what happened.
After I told her she said she was probably joking so I sat down.
I ordered angel hair pasta with marinara sauce and a side of sausage.
The pasta was crunchy and the sauce was dry.
Bread was brought after the meal was served.
Not a great experience

Very tough to impress this native Bostonian - Orlando Transplant with a Floridas venues Italian food. Fresco super exceeded our expectations & was a Friday Night slice of heaven! From the flavors, friendly staff, music and overall ambience .... + + + + + !!!!! Thank you for being a hidden gem so close to home.
Chris Boshers
Great food, and great atmosphere. Our server, I believe his name was Grant, was great as well. The piano was a nice addition as well. It was only a few minutes away from our stay at Universal Studios, and gave us the chance to grab something from Publix afterwards. There’s also a Whole Foods across from it.
Ed Colburn
We had stuffed mushrooms for a app. They were very good. The wife had chicken parmagiana with spaghetti and I had lobster ravioli but I added shrimp and chicken to my dish. Best meal we had in a long time. Great service.
Ken Bellis
Authentic northern Italian food right off International Drive. The service is great, the atmosphere is casual and the food is top notch. Be sure to try the arancine. The best I've ever had.
